ABC3 Report post Posted July 19, 2020 Can anyone tell me how to sew decorative stitching (sometimes called boot stitch) on a belt. Do you go by a pattern or just free hand. Thanks for your help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handstitched Report post Posted July 20, 2020 I have occasionally done decorative ( hand) stitching on belts, but I made a pattern first . I make a pattern on tracing paper, then carefully mark out the pattern on the leather belt. I have only done free hand on rare occasions on the machine........ if I'm feeling adventurous .Free hand takes practice, but its fun . Some may have a CAD.....machine...... thingy . Takes all the fun out of it but handy if theres multiples of the same item to be stitched. HS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
